[shapinglight]

As usual, I can't collect five things in a particular category and time is running out, so here are five of my favourite fandom things from 2016.

First some wonderful fan art.

We'll be running for another 11 days still so no rush, but glad to see your list! I hadn't read Foxinator's story yet, thanks for that.

Oops! I thought it closed today. I must have misread 16 for 6.

It's a really good ficlet, isn't it?

I've never seen Venus and Mars before. It's so lovely! =D

It is a beautiful picture, isn't it, and I love the way she's incorporated the original painting into it.

Thank you for including my silly little JibJab in this list! It does feel a bit out of place among all this brilliant stuff.* To be honest, I totally forgot I had even made it this year and failed to include it in my 2016 overview post! So, I also thank you for reminding me of its existence :-)

*I haven't read Memorial, but plan to remedy this as soon as possible (thanks for the rec). For the remaining three items on your list, I agree they're all brilliant.

Memorial is a terrific story, if rather bleak.

As for your vid, I love it. I only just found it, in fact. You posted it while I was away in Australia, and there was so much going on when I got back I never did get around to going through the Fag Ends archives to see what I'd missed.

Venus and Mars is gorgeous, as is Memorial. I haven't come across the others, so I love having more things to discover.

:) My pleasure. It feels good to have managed to make a list, have to say.
